Tips & Advice

What is an eviction notice?

An eviction notice is a legal document that landlords need to serve tenants to begin the process of having them removed the property. There are different kinds of “eviction with cause” notices that require the renter/lessor to stop violating terms of the lease, with removal from the promises as a final measure if they don’t comply. These are issued when rent is overdue, or when a tenant is in violation of a specific term of a lease. Unconditional evictions are the harshest, and usually only appropriate when a tenant is a repeat violator of a clause, or has done something illegal.There is an “eviction notice without cause,” and many states either don’t allow it, or require landlords to give extra notice--up to 60 days--from the point of serving it to the point when the actual eviction suit can begin. Before entering into an agreement, research the laws in your state.

What happens if rent is not paid on time?

If rent is not paid on time, a variety of things can happen. Sometimes a late fee will be assessed—this will be stipulated in the lease agreement. More commonly, there will be a written warning or even a few-day grace period -- especially if it’s a first-time infringement or if the rent is collected by an individual landlord rather than a management company,If rent goes unpaid for 14 days when there is no lease, the landlord will generally evict. If there is a lease, the landlord will often begin eviction proceedings at 30 days, unless a late payment arrangement has been reached.The more often someone is late with the rent, , the quicker and harsher the landlord’s actions are liable to be. A record of late payment can also negatively impact someone’s ability to get approved for future leases.

What type of maintenance is a renter responsible for?

A renter is usually only responsible for maintenance necessitated by abuse or neglect of the property. Landlord/building management is usually responsible for the rest. However, cosmetic repairs, such as changing light bulbs or washing carpets, is usually left up to the tenant. And even though a landlord might be financially responsible for other maintenance, it’s often left up to the tenant to coordinate and supervise.

What is a sublet?

A sublet is when a person who is leasing an apartment re-rents to another party. The legalities of this are very tricky, and many landlords/managers outright disallow it on the lease document. However, in situations where there’s an established lease-holder who needs to leave for a predetermined length of time, there are legal procedures to sub-lease. Not all landlords might consent, even if the primary lease holder applies in writing and follows legal procedure.It is very important that, when considering a sublet, you understand the situation between the owner and the lease-holder, because in a hostile sub-lease situation, the sub-leaser risks losing the money they paid in rent to the primary lease-holder.

Why do some rentals require first and last month rent upfront?

Some rentals require first and last month rent, because it offers the owner/landlord/building manager a feeling of security that, even in the unforeseen circumstance that the renter/lease holder stops paying the rent, the owner can still be sure to get their rent for one month.

What is a security deposit?

A security deposit is the money that a landlord or management company takes from a tenant and holds onto in a special account until the tenant vacates the unit. This money serves as the landlord/manager’s financial protection in case the tenant does not pay rent or causes damage to the unit. The standard amount is equal to one months’ rent, although it can be more in certain housing markets.

What is the difference between a lease and rental?

A rental is month-to-month, and the terms can be changed every 30 days. A lease is for a set period of time, and, during that time, the terms can’t be changed, nor the rent raised. Tenants that break a lease will be held responsible for paying rent until they or the landlord can find a new tenant.

What are some things to consider when renting an apartment?

There are many things to consider when renting an apartment: Is there available parking? What is the building security? Are there any building amenities? What are the terms of the lease? Can you have a pet?Is a parking spot included?Are utilities like water and electricity included? As for the apartment itself, make sure you know exactly what appliances and systems it has, including a refrigerator/freezer, dishwasher, and central air conditioning. Are there laundry facilities, and if so, where?State laws are all different in terms of what heating and air conditioning systems are required in rental units. It is important to find out what HVAC systems are in your apartment, if any, whether the renter is expected to pay for them, and whether it’s OK to install your own if they’re not in the unit.

This morning I called and spoke to Ariel. I asked if she was busy helping others. She said that, yes, she was busy, and how could she help me. I asked her to take my # and call at a time convenient for her. She said "Pertaining to what?" I said that we would discuss that when my call was returned. She then abruptly hung up.

Please, if you love your kids and safety, don't rent here!!! Ben Franklin is a theif and Angela his secretary helps aid in it. He's prejudice and harasses his tentants just to evict you to steal your deposit! BEWARE! "THE WORST DECISION EVER MADE TO RENT FROM THEM"!

I’ve been in my apartment since Aug 18th and have been reporting problems since day one. They will show you a beautiful apartment and lie about how nice your apartment will be. I was told that I was moving in one apartment but the day I went to sign my lease my apartment changed and it is the worst thing ever from the roach feces that are in every corner to the gaps and holes and unfinished floors. My apartment is kept clean and cold and There should be no reason I’m killing roaches I’ve asked several times to be moved to a different unit and nothing has happened. I’ve had to deal with a bee issue from them being on my porch to them taking over my master bedroom. I have several pictures of things that’s been reported to the office and they don’t seem to care about the ongoing issues. There is Gnats in my apartment that will not go away. The dishwasher has water in it and I’ve never used it before but no one seems to understand that there should be no liquid in there if it’s never been used which is probably a breeding ground for the roaches and gnats. This is the worse move ever and I’m fed up with this place and the nasty apartment I was put in. I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS PLACE TO ANYONE EVER. IF YOU LOOKING FOR A PLACE THATS NICE AND THIS AINT THE PLACE YOU WILL BE FORCED TO SHARE YOUR APARTMENT WITH ROACHES GNATS AND FOR ME BEES AS WELL. RUN AWAY FROM THIS PLACE ITS HORRIBLE.

This place is shady. DON'T move here. I can't wait until my lease is up. The manager is manipulative and the maintenance men are perverts. All they want is your money. They don't care about you at all. Tenants move out quickly here.

Absolutely shady management. Ever since the "new owners" took over, they promised to fix the pot holes in the road, fix the gate, fix the surrounding fences, and do something about all the random apartments in the back, that are always vacant and getting broken into! All type of craziness happens there when the staff leave. Heck, most times it doesn't even take that, you'll see the police rolling through there all day and night. The security is a joke, if something happens they're just going to say that they're not responsible, and to call insurance. They boosted up the prices, for what? the apartments are still crap on the inside with fresh paint slapped on the outside. they really don't care, but would love to charge an arm and a leg for this mess. So sad, if they actually did do something with it, it could be a decent property for families.

I been here for years, but since the new company took over, It's all about money and now it's horrible. loud, unsupervised kids till 10 or 11pm, Loud music, loud talking and hanging out till early morning hours. I'm moving asap. the manager doesn't care cause she doesn't live here.

Wildwood has given me such a great living experience! The staff is super caring and truly does what they can to help us out in any way possible. The amenities and property are beautiful as well! The apartments are pretty spacious and have the biggest rooms out of all of the other apartment complexes around town. Maintenance always handles issues in a timely manner also. I highly recommend living here, my experience has been nothing short of great!

I would not advise living here. It isn't terrible but the cons outweigh the pros. It is hard to get in contact with the management sometimes and their policies are enforced unless you stay on them about it.

In the aftermath of the flood in Baton Rouge, I was excited to learn of vacancies at Serenity. I stopped to get information and returned the next day with the money order for a background and to formally apply. Tamika the on site manager was not there, but a sign was posted that they were closed. After two more attempts I finally found Tamika at work and paid the fee for the application. She told me it was a 24 hour process. I didn't hear the next day and returned Monday. She said she hadn't checked my background yet although 2 and a half working days had passed excluding the weekend. Although most complexes this size have weekend hours, Serenity does not.Tamika told me she would get to it that day. At the end of the day she called to deny me the apartment. I have decades of perfect tenant history along with a job and 700 credit score. I have asked three times for a denial letter to see what it could be or if credit related fix the error on the report. I have never received a letter from Serenity. Right now with housing in high demand in Baton Rouge, shady management companies have turned to take applications from dozens of prospective tenants to accrue sums of money from the application fees knowing that they have no vacancies or intention to rent any apartment. I believe Tamika is carrying out such a practice as a new building manager.
